Van Marciano Pro Content Update v2.2 + Membership Options Changes for September

Hey everyone, welcome to another quick update here on Van Marciano Pro. We have some exciting things to announce, as well as news on our new Breakdance course, new tutorial videos, and more. So, here’s a rundown of what we’ve released this month (August) and what’s to come in September.

Breakdance Foundation Course v1.0

Let’s start with: Our Breakdance Foundation Course v1.0 is now included in the membership!

Members of Van Marciano Pro can start learning right away from their content dashboard. If you’re not yet a member, you can join to unlock the course or purchase it separately.

Our Breakdance Foundation Course is one of the main highlights of this summer’s v2.2 content drop!

Inside, you’ll find 3 sections, 23 topics, and nearly 4 hours of video lessons (230 minutes). You’ll also get a project media kit, and some bonus content too (design tutorials).

We also hope to add templates later this year when we begin updating the course topics using the recently released version 2.5 of Breakdance.

We planned on releasing a new template set with the Breakdance course, but at the time of this post, we’re still having a few problems making the templates work as they should be when imported into a new site project. For now, we’ve had to postpone this until we can solve the issue.

The course content itself is in beta release phase (Yes, we use the software release life cycle stages to release content here on Van Marciano Pro!), so this means that it is an ongoing work in progress.

In addition to the launch of our new course, and despite being the month of Summer break, here is a list of other updates we’ve added this month –

1. Bricks Builder – How to Consistently Add Colors to your Design Projects (Video)
2. Breakdance Design Tutorial: Responsive Modern Pricing Table (Video in tutorial library)

Bricks Builder 2.0 Foundation Course

If you’re a member of VMPro, you might have noticed we’ve added a placeholder (Now available) to our upcoming Bricks Builder 2.0 Foundation course.

Here’s what this means:

We’re mixing things up this time: Releasing the course right now, even though at the moment it’s mostly just a detailed intro to the new foundation course. I am putting together a detailed video tour of the new UI for Bricks Builder 2.0 which you can expect in about a week or so from now.

So here’s our plan:

As we finish each topic for the new Bricks Builder 2.0 course, we’ll drop it right into the new course. Basically, we’ll be drip-feeding new content throughout the rest of 2025 and into 2026.

This way, you can provide feedback on the topics so that we can continue improving the content in the future.

Membership and Price Changes

On the 1st of September, we’ll be updating our membership structure and prices which will apply only to new members. The new changes will not affect our existing members.

Here are the details:

We’re updating the Yearly Membership fee from €149 to €179, a €30 increase (Update: After careful consideration and thanks to the feedback we’ve received, we’ve decided to roll the yearly membership fee back to €139).

The Monthly membership is also going away, and in its place we’re rolling out a payment plan of €59 a month for three months for 1-year membership access, cancelled at any time.

The Lifetime Membership will remain available for anyone who wants to pay once and be done—and the new pay once price will be decreased to €387. We also have a monthly plan of €64.50 for 6 x months for our lifetime deal.

All in all, we think this new setup makes it easier and still affordable to join Van Marciano Pro and get full access to all the premium training you need to make the most of your favorite WordPress page builder and much more, so pretty cool stuff!

For our current yearly members: If you’ve been with Van Marciano Pro for over three years (thank you for your support and loyalty), we’ll automatically upgrade you to a Lifetime Membership after you’ve completed 3 x yearly memberships. You’ll receive an email letting you know once your third annual renewal goes through. Once you’re a lifetime member, you will not need to make any further subscription payments.

I like to keep things 100% transparent so here are some reasons for the price changes:

The membership fees have increased (or decreased) due to the rising costs (or sometimes falling costs) of resources such as website and HD video hosting, not to mention the yearly subscription fee of premium services and plugins needed to keep the platform up to date.

I’ve been absorbing those increases for a little while, but we also need to make sure the time and effort we put into creating our courses, templates, and tutorials is actually sustainable. At the end of the day, the business still needs to stay profitable (at least a little bit!). As I said, transparency means a lot to me in my business, this is why I have no problems sharing this with you.

By the way, you can still purchase the page builder courses individually, if you wish, by navigating to the following landing pages –

1. Breakdance Foundation Course [Go]
2. Bricks Builder 1.12 + 2.0 Mastery Courses [Go]
3. Oxygen Builder Classic Course [Go]

Content plans for the Autumn season

I want to talk a little bit about the content we are working on and have ready for release this autumn season here at Van Marciano Pro, and also for our YouTube channel.

For me, my plan is to try and be more consistent with the number of design tutorials I add to the library. I aim to add 4 tutorials per month. I also plan to publish two tutorials per month on our YouTube channel.

In addition to this, I will also be rolling out topics for the Bricks Builder 2.0 Foundation Course, and a brand new template set is in the works. (Update: New template set is available here.)

That is the plan. However, it is much easier said than done, because I have to work around client projects. For the first two weeks of September:

1. Bricks Builder 2.0 Settings + UI Overview [View topic]
2. Bricks Builder 2.0 New Features Video [View topic]
3. Bricks Builder 2.0 Countdown Element + Customization Video [View tutorial]

Final Summer Close-out Sale 35% Off

Finally, we’re running our last Summer sale for 2025, where you can save 35% off the yearly, and lifetime membership at the current low price (before the price increase and plan changes). Once the sale has ended, we will switch to our new structure and pricing on September 1st.

So that’s all we have for you in this month’s update. You can check out an overview of all the updates here on our changelog page. Check out all the awesome content and I’ll see you in the next one soon.
